Brown sugar ice jelly
At this point, Xu Zhixun pointed to a pile of compressed biscuits on the trolley:
"Pick a box of cookies!"
Marshal Zhang was overjoyed: "Thank you very much, Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens. Then this humble general will respectfully accept your offer!"
After saying that, Marshal Zhang went to select compressed biscuits.
Upon seeing this, General Zhao immediately went over and told Marshal Zhang what flavors those compressed biscuits came in.
Long Qian glanced at Marshal Zhang, then asked Xu Zhixun thoughtfully:
"Zhi Xun, you said yesterday that you would sell me bulletproof vests and pepper spray. Have you ordered them yet?"
Xu Zhixun was taken aback: "Not yet, because those two items are weapons, so I need to find a wholesaler again."
"It will probably take me a few days to find a wholesaler."
Long Qian: "I understand. You said last time that the Heavenly Court has very strict control over weapons, so it's probably difficult for you to buy weapons, right?"
Xu Zhixun: "Yes, and I can only sell you a small number of weapons, not a lot."
"Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, can you take the Sixth Prince to the Heavenly Court?" Marshal Zhang asked tentatively.
"Could you ask the Sixth Prince to see the Jade Emperor and get his approval to sell us more weapons?"
Xu Zhixun was taken aback, and immediately asked the system telepathically:
"System, can I take Long Qian to the modern era?"
System: "Okay, but Long Qian doesn't have an ID card. You must get him one, and you can't let anyone else know that he's a prince from ancient times."
"Otherwise, both you and Long Qian will be in danger!"
Xu Zhixun was flustered: "I understand, thank you!"
Then, Xu Zhixun said to Marshal Zhang:
“Long Qian is a mortal. I can take him to the Heavenly Court, but he doesn’t have an ID card, which will make things very complicated.”
"An ID card is like a pass."
"Without an ID card, Long Qian can hardly move an inch. There are many places he can't go, and he might even be arrested by the Heavenly Court's constables!"
Long Qian frowned slightly: "Then how can I get an ID card?"
Xu Zhixun sighed: "It's too difficult for you to get an ID card. We need to think about this carefully."
"Going to the Heavenly Court might not be a good thing for you. There are great risks involved, and you might even be in mortal danger!"
Zhang Fuyao became anxious: "Why is the Sixth Prince in danger of death if he goes to the Heavenly Court?"
"Didn't you say he was a reincarnation of the Purple Star?"
Xu Zhixun continued to lie: "In the Heavenly Court, there are some very evil gods."
"If they discover that a mortal is going to the Heavenly Court, they will definitely arrest Long Qian!"
"But I am just an ordinary fairy, I cannot protect Long Qian."
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked and began to discuss it amongst themselves.
Long Qian asked thoughtfully, "If I were caught by the evil gods of Heaven, what would they do to me?"
Xu Zhixun thought for a moment: "They will definitely imprison you, or even beat and torture you!"
"Then you'll become a prisoner, with no freedom whatsoever!"
"Heavens! This is terrifying! Sixth Prince, don't go to the Heavenly Court!"
Zhang Fuyao felt a chill run down her spine and immediately tugged at Long Qian's hand.
Long Qian also felt that it would be very dangerous for him to go to the modern world.
However, he was particularly curious about the modern world, so he suggested that Xu Zhixun take him to the "Heavenly Court" now.
Xu Zhixun said helplessly, "Then you need to be mentally prepared. If you come to Heaven with me, you may never come back."
Long Qian pondered for a moment: "I'll only go to the Heavenly Court for one hour, and then return to the Time-Space Supermarket. Is that alright?"
Xu Zhixun thought for a moment: "One hour, is that two hours?"
"If you only go to the Heavenly Court for two hours, there shouldn't be any danger."
"However, you must stay close to me and try not to speak to any deities, lest you encounter danger!"
Long Qian: "Alright, let's go then!"
"Sixth Prince, please don't go to the Heavenly Court! I'm afraid you'll be in danger!"
Zhang Fuyao grabbed Long Qian's arm, anxiously trying to persuade him.
Immediately afterwards, the other soldiers also tried to persuade Long Qian not to take the risk.
However, Long Qian still wanted to go to the modern world to see it.
Therefore, Xu Zhixun suggested:
“Long Qian, you can’t wear armor. That will attract too much attention. You must change into ordinary clothes.”
“Okay.” Long Qian agreed to Xu Zhixun’s suggestion and quickly went to a nearby tent to change into a black outfit.
For safety's sake, he took his sword with him.
Afterwards, Long Qian bid farewell to everyone and followed Xu Zhixun into the supermarket.
After entering the supermarket, Xu Zhixun put the robot back into the system's storage space.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Zhixun led Long Qian to the entrance of the supermarket.
[Ding!]
[System notification: The portal to another dimension has been opened!]
[The host's supermarket has now connected to the modern world!]
After hearing the system notification, Xu Zhixun said to Long Qian, "Let's go!"
"Okay." Long Qian curled the corners of his mouth.
As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Zhixun walked out of the supermarket, and Long Qian followed her out of the supermarket.
In an instant, the area outside the supermarket was no longer the bamboo forest of Cuizhu Village in Xia Kingdom, but a modern street.
It's 3:30 pm now, and the sun is shining brightly.
The streets were bustling with traffic and very lively.
Xu Zhixun closed the hamster supermarket and then planned to take Long Qian for a walk in the neighborhood.
Just then, the two girls walked hand in hand to the vicinity of the supermarket.
When they saw Long Qian, their eyes lit up and they whispered among themselves.
Next, the two girls walked up to Long Qian together.
"Hey bro, who are you cosplaying as?" a pretty long-haired girl asked Long Qian curiously.
She was wearing a dark blue denim vest and super short hot pants.
Her long, snow-white legs were slender, sexy, and alluring.
Long Qian glanced at the long-haired girl, his expression changed, and then he looked at Xu Zhixun.
Xu Zhixun chuckled twice and said to the long-haired girl:
"He wasn't cosplaying anyone; he just likes wearing Hanfu."
"Oh, I see!" The long-haired girl smiled and then asked Long Qian.
"Hey handsome, can I take a picture with you?"
Long Qian: "..."
He didn't know what "handsome" or "group photo" really meant.
Xu Zhixun thought for a moment and said to the long-haired girl:
"Excuse me, he is my boyfriend, and I don't like him taking pictures with other girls."
The long-haired girl looked a little disappointed and pouted, "Fine, then forget it!"
After saying that, the two girls linked arms and walked forward.
Xu Zhixun breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the two girls walk away.
Then, she whispered to Long Qian:
"You can't take photos with other people, so I lied to that girl earlier and said you were my boyfriend."
“What does ‘handsome’ mean? And what does ‘group photo’ mean?” Long Qian asked subconsciously.
Therefore, Xu Zhixun explained to Long Qian:
"'Handsome' means a man who is very handsome."
"'Group photo' means taking a picture."
After saying that, she took out her phone from her handbag and showed Long Qian a photo of herself:
"Look, this is the photo..."
After Xu Zhixun explained for a long time, Long Qian finally understood.
Because he was from ancient times, he couldn't take photos with modern women for safety reasons, lest it cause any unforeseen complications.
Afterwards, Xu Zhixun planned to take Long Qian shopping.
Near the hamster supermarket, there is a stall selling ice jelly.
So, Xu Zhixun led Long Qian to the stall:
Are you thirsty? Would you like some ice jelly?
Long Qian had never eaten ice jelly before. He nodded and said, "I'd like to try it, thank you."
"You're welcome," Xu Zhixun replied with a smile, then said to the auntie selling ice jelly.
"Boss, I'd like two bowls of ice jelly."
"Okay." The owner immediately made a bowl of ice jelly.
The ice jelly contains crushed ice, watermelon chunks, mango pudding, raisins, crushed peanuts, hawthorn slices, sago, and more, and is also topped with a layer of brown sugar.
Xu Zhixun bought ice jelly a few days ago.
She knew that the ice jelly at this stall cost eight yuan a bowl.
So she took out her phone, scanned the QR code, and paid 16 yuan for the ice jelly.
She then took the plastic bowl containing the ice jelly and handed it to Long Qian.
Long Qian hesitated for a moment before accepting the ice jelly.
He was worried that the ice jelly was poisoned, but he couldn't find anyone to test it now.
"Don't worry, there's no poison in the ice jelly." Xu Zhixun saw Long Qian's concerns and immediately chuckled.
"You're both incompetent and playful. You want to eat ice jelly, but you're afraid it's poisonous."
Long Qian didn't understand the meaning of "both bad at it and loves to play," but he sensed that Xu Zhixun was mocking him, so he said helplessly:
"When we travel, we naturally have to be careful to avoid encountering shady shops."
"Oh dear, young man, I don't like what you're saying!" The auntie selling ice jelly immediately got angry.
"My ice jelly is clean and hygienic, it's impossible for it to be toxic, and I would never run a shady business!"
Xu Zhixun was both amused and exasperated, so she had no choice but to fabricate a lie:
"Boss, don't be angry. My friend saw on the news that someone went to a restaurant and was poisoned to death."
“From then on, he developed a psychological aversion to things sold outside.”
The boss suddenly realized, "Oh, I see."
After saying that, the boss looked at Long Qian and gently comforted him:
"Young man, don't be afraid, my ice jelly is really not poisonous. I've been selling ice jelly here for many years!"
"Yes, yes, brother, don't be afraid!" The man selling watermelons next to him laughed and also came to comfort Long Qian.
"Our city has a pretty good public security situation, and there are very few shady shops."
Long Qian looked at the man, then smiled and said, "Thank you."
Next, the auntie who sells ice jelly made another bowl of ice jelly.
Seeing that Long Qian hadn't eaten the ice jelly yet, Xu Zhixun picked up a spoon and took a bite of it first:
"Look, this ice jelly really isn't poisonous! Here, have a bowl of my ice jelly!"
After saying that, Xu Zhixun handed the bowl of ice jelly she had eaten to Long Qian, and then took the bowl of ice jelly from Long Qian's hand.
Long Qian, being an ancient prince, was particularly suspicious.
Before each meal, he would have someone test the food for poison.
Seeing that Xu Zhixun had eaten the ice jelly, he felt a little relieved. He picked up a spoon, scooped up a spoonful of ice jelly, and put it in his mouth.
The ice jelly is soft, tender, and sweet, with flavors of mango pudding and brown sugar. It's icy cold and refreshing.
Long Qian laughed: "It's quite delicious."
"Of course, my family's ice jelly is handmade!" the auntie selling ice jelly said with a big smile.
